Ignore the gov. They are trolls.

If you don't like the way gov does then stop feeding to it.

Fortunately the US govt does not control the world, try as they might. They might be able to do something about Silk Road, but 10 other sites will spring up (as they have already started to). They could never shut down bitcoin.
